COMMON WARNING SIGNS
Could You Need Blocked Sinks?
Not every blocked sinks problem looks the same. These are the signs that suggest it's worth requesting professional help.
Slow-draining sink
Water taking ages to empty usually means a build-up.
Gurgling waste
Gurgling can mean air trapped behind a blockage.
Bad smell
Odours can signal waste collecting in the trap.
Complete blockage
A sink that won't drain at all needs prompt clearing.
Recurring blockages
Sinks that keep blocking may have a deeper cause.
WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON
Finding the Cause Makes Blocked Sinks Easier.
A symptom is rarely the whole story. Whether it's a visible fault or a problem hidden behind a wall, under a floor or inside a fitting, understanding the likely cause first helps ensure the right blocked sinks work is carried out — and reduces the chance of it coming back.
- Identify the likely cause
- Investigate the right area
- Plan the appropriate next steps
